Serious problem. My S-Class hatch won't open on the surface.

Hi, i could really use some help. i got hit my some destroyers and submerged to hide. now i've come back up to get some air, but my crew won't get on the bridge and it appears i'm still not getting any fresh air. i'm to far from base to ignore this issue. what can i do to force the boat to ventilate with the outside air?

thx for any help

I got the same problem in my IX D2 and i think it might be a bug. I had to save my game a load it up and the CO2 level problem stopped and went down to 0 again.

Don't know if this will help, but two thoughts:

1) On the surface, were you sinking from the stern? I've been damaged & had the stern submerged while surfaced. Main pumps were 100% destroyed, so I couldn't pump out the water even after everything else was repaired. Headed for home like that, but my CO2 kept going up. I assumed that meant that the air vents were in the stern and still under water.

2) Were you at "Battle Stations" for a long time? I've slipped and left my crew at battle stations for too long before. Come to a dead stop. Nothing charges and no more O2 if I remember right... wonder why. Checked the crew screen, and it's because they're all asleep!

Other than that, I've never had trouble with O2. Hope you get it figured out.

nah. i was damaged but i don't think that was the cause. interpol's solition worked.

That is a small 1.5 bug. Doesn't happen too often.

Next time try going to PD and then surface the boat by clicking on the CO2 icon.
Works for me and saves reloading the game.

it also works if you click on the co2 icon on the screen, it surfaces the boat for you and "usually" fixes the bug where hatch wont open

it mostly happens if you alt+tab out of the game and sometimes the opposite happens and the crew will stay on deck underwater and the fix is to use the same save and reload fix :up:
